MURPHY'S LAW
& CRETIN
All Ages @ Safari Nite Club
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There was another band on this bill and for the life of me I can't remember. I remember that the band was good but the name just doesn't come to me. Anyway it was nice to have Murphy's Law back. Jimmy was the only one left from the last time due to the fight that they had after the show here in Febuary.
Cretin was up first with one of the ex-members of the Queers and just guess what they sounded like? The Queers of course. Maybe it's just me but isn't this whole Queers thing just out of control. I mean they were an OK punk band back in their day but then they started doing loves songs and DaVo went out for Ice Cream and never came back. Also what the hell is with the cat thing? OK they're a chick band (boy is that going to piss some people off). So in other words the world may be in need of a lot of things but another Queers type band it is not. Cretin was good but there was too much sugar in the tea.
If you haven't seen Murphy's Law but hated the records, give them a chance because live they are something else. Jiummy has a way of working a crowd and a stage that can not be topped. They are a true joy to see. He has this way of walking into your house and making it his own and thats just what he did. This time there were no fights and no breakup.
